Though he’s been with the republicans, Spanish rebel leader Pablo (Akim Tamiroff) is reluctant to support American Jordan (Gary Cooper) who’s been sent to blow up a bridge, leading to his rather direct ouster by his wife Pilar (Katina Paxinou), in For Whom The Bell Tolls, 1943.

Left alone by their de facto leader Pilar, Jordan (Gary Cooper), the American republican volunteer, engineer and dynamite expert and Maria (Ingrid Bergman), the Spanish Civil War refugee whose hair was shorn by the fascists, grow closer, in For Whom The Bell Tolls, 1943.

Citing John Donne, though without the attribution that appears in Ernest Hemingway’s novel, Gary Cooper as Robert Jordan, with a colleague (Feodor Chaliapin) in combat, then meeting General Golz (Le Bulgakov), opening producer-director Sam Wood’s For Whom The Bell Tolls, 1943.

American Jordan (Gary Cooper) native Anselmo (Vladimir Sokoloff) have just met their fellow Spanish Civil War republican saboteurs (Akim Tamiroff, Arturo de Cordova) but the conversation turns around their cook Maria (Ingrid Bergman), early in For Whom The Bell Tolls, 1943.

Gary Cooper and Ingrid Bergman fight the good fight in Spain in the movie of Ernest Hemingway's For Whom The Bell Tolls (1943).
